Print Recipe

A warm, comforting peach cobbler topped with brown sugar biscuit dough and served with vanilla ice cream. This easy homemade dessert combines juicy peaches with a tender, cinnamon-kissed biscuit topping for a cozy treat perfect for chilly evenings.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 cups fresh peaches, peeled and sliced (about 5–6 medium peaches)
  • ½ cup brown sugar, packed (preferably dark brown sugar)
  • 2 tablespoons cornstarch
  • 1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice
  • ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • ¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg (optional)
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour (unbleached preferred)
  • 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ¼ teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 4 tablespoons unsalted butter, cold and cubed
  • ⅓ cup brown sugar, packed
  • ⅓ cup whole milk or buttermilk
  • Vanilla ice cream (for serving)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. In a large bowl, toss the sliced peaches with ½ cup brown sugar, cornstarch, lemon juice, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Mix gently to coat all the peach slices without breaking them up. Let sit while preparing the biscuit topping.
  3. Transfer the peach mixture to a 9×9-inch baking dish and spread evenly.
  4. In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, salt, and cinnamon.
  5. Cut in the cold butter using a pastry cutter or fingers until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs with pea-sized pieces.
  6. Stir in the ⅓ cup brown sugar.
  7. Add the milk or buttermilk and gently stir just until the dough comes together; it will be slightly sticky.
  8. Drop spoonfuls of biscuit dough over the peach filling, covering unevenly as the dough will spread and rise during baking.
  9. Bake for 35-40 minutes until the biscuit topping is golden brown and the filling is bubbling. Tent with foil if the biscuit browns too quickly.
  10. Let the cobbler cool for at least 10 minutes to thicken the filling.
  11. Serve warm with a generous scoop of vanilla ice cream.

Notes

Use cold butter for flaky biscuits. If biscuit dough is too dry, add a splash more milk carefully. Tent with foil if biscuit browns too fast. Peeling peaches is optional for rustic texture. Frozen peaches can be used if thawed and drained. For dairy-free, substitute milk and butter with plant-based alternatives. For gluten-free, use a 1:1 gluten-free baking flour blend.
